Aaron Moore<br />
...will be at the Front Porch Stage, Saturday at Noon<br />
“...A dexterous stylist who bridges<br />
generations and genres, may be the<br />
last well-kept secret of Chicago blues.<br />
Moore worked with the likes of<br />
Howlin’ Wolf & Little Walter in his<br />
younger days...His sparse, almost<br />
cerebral style of blues improvisation<br />
might require you to dig a little deeper<br />
than usual, but the riches you’ll<br />
discover make the effort well<br />
worthwhile.”<br />
-David Whiteis, The Chicago Reader<br />

SHIRLEY JOHNSON<br />
<strong>Blues</strong> Attack (<strong>CD</strong> 798)<br />
After high acclaim for Shirley’s first album for<br />
<strong>Delmark</strong>, Killer Diller (one of the best selling <strong>CD</strong>s in<br />
the <strong>Delmark</strong> catalog), Shirley is back with that same<br />
blend of good-rockin’ Chicago blues, smoldering<br />
R&B and poppin’ soul. For many years, Shirley<br />
has been an able ambassador, here and abroad,<br />
representing both the blues and gospel traditions.<br />
Her passionate, strong voice that can deliver a<br />
chugging Chicago blues shuffle with uncommon<br />
conviction, and infuse a slow ballad with the reassuring<br />
power of her own personal experience puts her<br />
in the vanguard of today’s female blues singers.<br />

Lurrie Bell<br />
...will be at Crossroads Saturday at Noon<br />
“Everybody who has ever played with<br />
him or seen him scuffling the Chicago<br />
scene for years will tell...‘when his<br />
head is right, Lurrie is the baddest<br />
mofer on the planet.’ And by that they<br />
usually refer to his prodigious talent<br />
on guitar and the spiritual hold that<br />
the blues has on him.”<br />
—Jack Oudiz, <strong>Blues</strong> Access<br />

a gem of a recording that<br />
captures the essence of<br />
southern country blues.”<br />
